+# Gerber (RS-274X or Extended Gerber) is a bilevel, resolution independent image format.
+
+# // graphic objects
+# // draw: line segment, thickness, round or square line endings. (solid circle and rectangule apertures only)
+# // arc: circular arc, thickness, round endings. (solid circle standard aperture only)
+# // flash: replication of a given apertura (shape)
+# // region: are defined by a countour (linear/arc segments.)
+#
+# // draw/arc: can have zero length (just flash the aperture)
+# // flash: any aperture can be flashed
+#
+# // operation codes operates on coordinate data blocks. each operation code is for one coordinate data block pair and vice-versa.
+# // D01: stroke an aperture from current point to coordinate pair. region mode off. lights-on move.
+# // D02: move current point to this coordinate pair
+# // D03: flash current aperture at this coordinate pair.
